Editor In the question of forfeiting- of the Northern Pacific land grant,: before congress, the minorit v oi the , . i- ..." i judiciary committee in its hrt re-; port put so clearly the right of the government to re-enter the lands forfeited by the Northern Pacific j Railway that no lawyer with any professional reputation to lose would have ventured to argue against it in the house unless he had no reputation for integrity to lose. His appearance on the other side would of itself have been a confession that he held a retainer for the other side. The minority ' reserved the question of public policy for the second report which it made a few days ago. In this report it .shows that the govern ment" in granting land "to aid in the construction" of the railway had not only paid the whole cost of construction outright, but had,) even accepting the extravagant estimates of the cost of the road made by its president, which wore twenty-six- millions more than the estimates given by the officials of the treasury, given the corporation a dear bonus of sixteen millions over and above the cost of its road. A London dispatch of the 7th says: "The government has in structed Lord Dufferin, British ambassador to Constantinople, to present an ultimatum to the porle demanding that the sultan at once declare Arabi Pailia. a rebel, and accept English proposals for joint aoticn in Egypt. In event of the porte failing to comply, Lord Dufferin will be recalled and land ing of Turkish troops in Egypt will be oppressed by tii. English. The porte requested a delay for consideration of the demand, and Lord Dufferin has telegraphed the foreign office here for further in structions. It is believed that the government will not consent to any further delay. A dispatch from Constantinople reports great excitement there on the announce ment of the British ultimatum. Contkadici'OKV reports come from -the seat of war in Egypt. It is claimed that Arabi Bey whipped the English in Saturday's fight; another version is that the English troops were simply on a "rcconnoisanee," and fell back after obtaining the desired infor mation. Arabi seems to be gain ing in power and influence, llussia is said to be making exten sive war preparations, and 'tis thought that there will be a gener al European conflict, with England, Germany, Austria and Italy op posed to France and Iussia. for though France is an ally of Eng land, yet should Germany take patt that would send the French into the opposite camp. Millions of dollais' worth of three and a half per cents have already been offered to the secre tary of the treasury to be exchanged for three's. Those who declared a year and a half ago that a three-per-cent. loan might be floated were called visionaries. The lapse of .time has accomplished without fric tion what no amount of disputation would have brought about. . -Eight thousand men are em ployed in building the western extension of the Northern Pacific railway. The lay four miles of track daily. It is thought there will be railroad connection from Portland to the east by the 1st of next October. The supreme court of Massa ehusetts has decided against allow ing John Healy to take the benefit of the insolvent act, because, after attempting a settlement with his creditors, Mr. Healy lost one hun dred dollars at a game styled "draw poker." The rolling-mill strikes at St. r-Xouis cost the strikeis 100,000; the proprietors get.off with a loss of $16,000, as usual. Rufus Hatch, and a party oi capitalists have bought 758,000 act cs of land from the X. P. II. R. ' Co., in Montana, paying therefor ftl nil nni Tt iq rrnnnt.prl to f"l stock it with oO.QOO head ofi cattle. Tin: ST ibT flic rtni.- ion of t ho tariff i till in seieii ! at Lena; Branch.
